Background: EGFR exon 20 insertion (Exon 20ins) is the most common type among rare EGFR mutations. It involves over 100 identified subtypes. These mutations are generally insensitive to epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs). The development of small-molecule targeted agents specifically designed for Exon 20ins has brought new hope to this patient population. However, responses to Exon 20ins targeting agents vary across different insertion subtypes, and there is currently a lack of research focused on treatment strategies specifically for near-loop mutations such as P772_H773insGNP.
Methods: To explore individualized treatment strategies, we reviewed the medical records of a patient with Exon 20ins P772_H773insGNP. Relevant medical history, laboratory and imaging findings, and treatment details were collected and analyzed.
Results: This case report describes a patient with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The patient was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma of the right upper lobe (T3N1M1a, stage IV). Next-generation sequencing (NGS) detected an EGFR exon 20ins, specifically P772_H773insGNP. The patient experienced disease progression despite multiple lines of therapy. Following multidisciplinary discussion, furmonertinib was initiated as sixth-line therapy. The best overall response was assessed as partial response (PR), and as of the last follow-up, the patient had achieved a progression-free survival (PFS) of 10.5 months.
Conclusion: This case represents the first report of a favorable response to furmonertinib in a patient with the EGFR exon 20ins subtype P772_H773insGNP, a near-loop mutation. EGFR exon 20ins mutations are highly heterogeneous, and different subtypes exhibit varying sensitivities to targeted drugs. Exploring individualized treatment approaches is of great clinical importance.
